BPEA conference on COVID-19 and the economy

The Brookings Papers on Economic Activity mini-conference on COVID-19 happened today as a webinar. I am reading several of the paper drafts that were discussed (but did not have the chance to tune in to the webinar). I may write more here about these papers, but for now I want to emphasize this graph from the paper by Baqaee et al., Policies for a Second Wave:

The graph is self-contained, so I don’t feel the need to explain it more.

I may indeed post again, in more detail, about this and other papers presented in this conference.
